Short Note 1.7.2008

Blogging from sis hse in PJ. Into my second day of doing absolutely nothing now. Which is absolutely boring, by the way. I woke up feeling absolutely dreadful. Not a gd feeling. Tat's y i've made my way to pj to bug my sis and also to catch up on wimbledon. federer and hewitt are playing right at this moment. But my sis doesnt allow me to use the computer and have the tv switched on at the same time, electricity is up! So i dont really know the score....

Anyway, my eye is fine now, thank god! Due to heatiness after all! So guys, pls remember to drink tonz n tonz of water yea... Weather is cuckoo nowadays...

Adios for now and more next time....:-)

FOod POst! BUmbu BaLi

Yea I titled it as a food post, but since this is my last day posting from this location, ie my office, I've gotta drop a short note on it. Yup, today's my last day here and I do feel rather sad that i'm leaving my colleagues behind. I've been here for bout 2 years and 3 months now. Except for 1 or 2 persons (bitch!) all my colleagues i've grown to love. Had my last lunch as an employee here just now, Batu 4 Jalan Ipoh, loh pan mee...yummy...

So my desk is now d cleanest and tidiest ever since i shifted into tis room. All my files are with the new lawyer now, and most of my personal things are in plastic bags waiting to depart. Its a strange feeling, really.

My departure is really good for my other colleagues actually. Coz my boss has been much nicer to everyone. And get this: he's gonna abolish the alternate half-day working Saturday! Wtf. Just when I'm leaving!--_--. And also he's planning a company trip to Bandung in August! He mentioned casually during the office meeting yesterday that i'm welcomed to join them if I want to then. But silly me forgot to ask whether I need to pay for my share or not. Tsk tsk. Stupid lawyer who doesnt know how to grasp opportunity! We'll just see if I have such good luck to land a free company trip with my ex company.... Tough, i knowwwww.....

Anyway, I'm nursing a huge flu right now. Just my luck, getting sick right before a happening weekend. Coz i'm popping over to Mont Kiara for the KL Bar Young Lawyers Charity NIte later today. And moro evening, the office has planned for a farewell karaoke session at the Pavillion Red Box. Woohoo..never sang there b4. Wonder if the sound system will make my singing bearable to listen to for once haha.

I'm gonna be on sabbatical for more than a week, and i dont know if I;ll have as much time to blog once i start on my new job. It'll be a totally new and unexplored area that i'll be taking on, so i reckon I'd have to work my ass off for a while before i can afford to take things to a level of bearable stress (slack off lar!) and write a blog or two.

But But, i;d definitely be taking my trusty (and maybe a bit rusty too, coz I did drop it into the bathtub while i was holidaying in Korea. Errr..wat's the camera doing near a bathtub? Not gonna tell..hahahaaha) camera to tonight's event. And also moro's k-session. I expect to take lots of pics of lengluis and leng chais, so wait for em ok??

Till then, these are a few pics from one dinner trip with my hokkie (short for my hokkien man..yes, man, not mien) in PUchonG.

Bumbu Bali. I didn't get the address, but feel free to ask me for directions. I had a few more pics of the food itself. But i keep having problems uploading them..so I'll have to do without lar.

Most of the food is meat-based. Grilled and spicy. Coz it is supposedly food ala Bali style, of course.

Nice ambience and settings. Food portions and layout also not bad...I know I know..no pics right...wait i go try again har....

AHhhhhh CHoooooooooooooooo!!!!! Flu bugs alert!.....

Anyway, there we go.. succesfully uploaded...

This is CY's coffee. He said its not bad lar.. He's the coffee connoisseur, so have to believe him lar..

The food looks good right. A bit oily and can be too much meat if you're not a big meat eater though. For us it was alright, the dips are good.

waitt.....

WTFFFFFFFFFFF....

I just realised right underneath my right eye, there's a small bump....SObssssss....not another stye!!!! Penny said its due to heatiness, thus my flu and sorethroat...I sure hope so...not on my holiday pls!!! Just my luck bloodyyy hell!

Bye..goin off to mope now..

Hazardous occupation...

Yes, the legal profession is a high-risk profession!

I'm risking my life everyday now...

Here's proof:

I must approve or I'd die!!

My Kiasuism...

So sorry to post this on a Monday, compounding your MOnday blues...

But here goes anyhow....

Yes, tat 5th of June 2008 and its eve.

And since my car was running low on fuel too on the 4th, I had no choice but to pump petrol. I had received numerous sms tat day on the fuel increase and by 6, I could see from my office room window that cars were already starting to queue at the Shell station right opposite of my office complex.

And by 6.15, I had left the office and joined in the queue.

Beemer is gonna save on petrol too..

6.27

6.40, still queuing....

6.47, the Ugly Malaysians had reared their ugly heads once again. Cutting queues...a skill honed to perfection...

And..arr...finally at 6.57 I reached the station. This Jazz only pumped RM40 worth of petrol. I wonder if its worth it queuing for an hour to save a few ringgit.

I used to pump about 50 a week. Now its up to about 65 a week. With the 625 subsidy, I can (and hope fervently) that it'll cover the increase lar.

Hate to post this sad post...so i'll stop now...blek....

Tebu

Found these pics when I was trying to look for some pics for Yuin for her to use on her wedding slides. Didnt find any for her use, but found these instead.

Yes, evidence to show that I was indeed chubby when I was young. And my stuffing my face silly with food is not the reason I look the way I am today. At least not entirely!

Me with Ling, my oldest oldest friend todate. Look at that protective arm around me.. Poor her, had to give in to my every whims and fancies (irritating whimpers and annoying schreeches, more like it) just coz she was a year older than me (still is!! hahahhahahahaah).

This was taken on the sidewalk outside the Standard Chartered Bank in Port Dickson. All Pd people shd know where its at.

Anyway, ppl told me there's a theory which said that cute kids grow up to be ugly and ugly kids grow up to be pretty.

WEll,I'm not gonna comment on tat.hahaha..coz I really do think I was a cute kid!

But do look at my keratan tebu legs above!! Don't u just wanna bite it?!

LangKawI

During the school holidays, we had a short trip to Langkawi. Hehe, sounds like school children eh. Well, the last time i was in Langkawi was when i was in Form 4. Real school trip. I still remember that i had a crush on one of the Form 5 boys back then. I think he turned out to be a doctor, not sure though. Too bad I was so innocent and shy back then. Or i could've turned out to be mrs. doctor, manning the cash register at some private clinic/surgery (would be best if he's a plastic surgeon so i can have free 'structurings' done too! Pomelo, anyone??;-) and laughing my way to the bank. hahaa.

Buying ferry tickets at Kuala kedah.

Jam packed with ppl!

This is Langkawi Boutique Hotel where we stayed.

PAS Youth Convention in progress!! No pork served at breakfast then i reckon?...

Pantai Cenang

RM90 for a ride up.

Cable car...highlight of the trip! Really really cool...

That's JunHao, TaiYong and YeeShyun with me n CY.

Not for the fainthearted.

But I'm scared of heights too, and I was ok throughout, so it cant be tat bad.

View from the top. Can you see my yacht parked down there?

Very cool. One thing that Tourism Malaysia has done right.

Peace-yo.

Had a short n sweet trip. Good food, good ambience, good company. I'm content really, dont even need Doctor and Pomelos anymore.haha..

Must return to Langkawi soon. Anyone interested to go?? Carlsberg is RM1.70 a can if I may remind you.....
